The judge overseeing former President Donald Trump’s classified documents case on Thursday rejected his bid to dismiss the case under the Presidential Records Act but left open the door to revive the issue during trial.
Trump-appointed U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon shot down his motion claiming that the Presidential Records Act gave him the right to take classified materials home to Mar-a-Lago, writing that the PRA “does not provide a pre-trial basis to dismiss” the document and obstruction charges.
